Horoscope for February 7, 2012

By Bernice Bede Osol

It might be an excessive amount of opportunities rather than too few that lead to problems for you in the year ahead. It will be left up to you to evaluate each and every facet, so that you don't waste time on small beer.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Instead of trying to be all things to all people, it would be much wiser to take a firm stance on whatever it is that floats your boat. It could turn out to be the least complicated choice.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Responsibilities and duties that demand immediate attention should not be ignored. Disregarding or postponing action items would further compound your problems.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- A friend might disappoint you by not inviting you to a social involvement. Later, you'll find out that it wasn't his or her place to include you or anybody else.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You are a person who isn't afraid to tackle more than one endeavor simultaneously. However, take care about doing so currently, because your skill could desert you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Be extremely careful to make sure that the story being retold to you is accurate before you pass it on to anybody else. You'll be blamed if it's just a load of bunk.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- A friendship could be in jeopardy if you place more importance on something material than you do on your chum. Don't allow anything of this ilk to overpower your better angles.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Don't underestimate a person with whom you have to negotiate an important matter. The trump card you think you're holding might actually be found in the other party's hand.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Even though you might be the one who's putting pressure on yourself, it isn't likely that you'll be very effective working under stressful conditions. Let up a little, already.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Under most conditions you'll tend to be balanced, well controlled and practical. Today, however, these finer qualities may be eschewed in favor of foolish risks.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- If you fail to do your own thinking, you run the risk of others making decisions for you, and not necessarily with your best interests in mind. Stay in charge of your business.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- A situation concerning someone with whom you've had a recent disagreement still needs a bit more time to heal, so if you can do so graciously, avoid this person for the time being.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Suppress all impulses to take either financial or physical risks. It's not smart to allow boldness or brashness to take precedence over your common sense.
